Shane Comer - Pound of Flesh

My heart's been broken, my body's in pain
My family is hurting, and so is my brain
All these tears I shed, in pain, they're all in vain
I've run out of strength

A pound of flesh, is all you get
I am filled full of regret
My family cries every day, over the pain inside
All this from greed

I've lost what I had, and I've paid the cost
It's a daily reminder of how much I lost
Our kids go without and cry in vain
But I'm still reaching, yeah, through all the pain

A pound of flesh, is all you will get
Hate has damaged all of us, and yet, we carry on

I been taken for a fool, all my life I been used
Manipulated and abused, never had the chance to choose
They demand a pound of flesh, but what good is it?
My family's in pain and tears, our lives are so hard

A pound of flesh is all they will get
But it will never be enough to pay my debt
My kids go hungry at night, nothing left to eat
A pound of flesh is all they will get

The sky turns dark when I turn around
My dreams have been taken away
It makes me wonder who really cares
No one can see the agony

A pound of flesh is all they will get
But it will never be enough to pay my debt
My kids go hungry and nothing left to eat
A pound of flesh is all they will get
